    You won't get new number. Also, this checkbox doesn't work... So you'd have go to SSA anyways. My fresh experience is here So you can just say no.

    I guess you mean online account number? It's optional. Why aren't you filing online? When filing online, I don't recall having to provide this number.

    Congratulations, combo interview is a blessing. At least you won't have to worry about two interviews on different days or additional delays on N-400 due to pending I-751.

    If Emma doesn't know (and I can reassure they don't), then nobody knows. USCIS is not a clear box, what happens inside is a mystery for everybody unless they work at that field office.

    You can sue USCIS for decision after 120 days after interview. When you file N-400, you get 24 months extension for your GC validity. Unless it was a 2 year card with I-751 extension already?

    Meeting fiance only once is likely going to raise eyebrows in some consulates. Additionally, it's beneficial for both petitioner and beneficiary to spend more time together to understand whether marrying is the right thing to do. It can prevent future conflicts and divorce. Additionally, following the bare minimum effort strategy with USCIS / DOS works for some applicants, but doesn't for many others as they get more scrutiny and experience delays.

    Super fast. Congrats!

    I reread the question. Re-clarifying my answer. As long as he can prove living in the US for 5 years at any point of 40 year span (especially after 14), this should be sufficient. E.g. he doesn't need to prove he lived for 40 years, he only needs to prove 5.

    Agreed on that. If you submit a bad document, you'll also have to be careful on every future form answering questions about ever submitting documents that weren't true, accurate etc to USCIS. Sometimes USCIS can also become suspicious and accuse of fraud. It's best to wait for corrected document and submit that.

    Interview may never happen. If silent approval happens, this may pop up at N-400.

    Other than Mexico and India, January 2022. Source: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/visa-bulletin/2025/visa-bulletin-for-may-2025.html So if you filed in 2024, you still have a while to wait.

    Congrats!

    Yes it does No, it would be a shady thing to do, aka fraud. If you are eligible to naturalize under 5 year rule, your best bet is either converting application from 3 year rule to 5 year rule or withdraw current N-400 and submit new under 5 year rule. I'm not aware of protocol for converting petition. Maybe you can submit a letter in additional evidence section. Withdrawing and submitting new application is the most straightforward path. Of course, you lose filing fee and time, but I guess it's not that important in the grand scheme of things. Good luck!

    Typically 3 year rule application requires more docs than 5 year rule.

    If you don't have proof or can't satisfy officials, CRBA will be denied.

    The problem is, you may not know, but USCIS, DHS and DOS may know what happened and they may have records. Hence, you can try to learn more, as @Edward and Jaycel suggested, by filing FOIA. This may not be relevant for travel now, but well may be relevant for N-400.

    Correct, 90 days. 6 months is for replacement green card, I-90. I'd file in the first week of September 2025. Maybe September 2 or 3
  18. OldUser
    Congrats!

    What all the fees you paid for I-485, I-765 etc?
  20. OldUser
    Did anything change in applicant's circumstances? With same input expect same result.
  21. OldUser
    Good for you! Which year was it?
  22. OldUser
    It's good, case is moving. You may not hear after that for a year or more.

    So essentially, senator gave you information you already knew? I don't see the value in contacting them in this case...

    My lawyer advised me not to travel on AP unless it was emergency back in 2019. I was in valid status on work visa back then. From what I remember, it was always recommended to stay in the US until GC is issued. Most of people I knew who adjusted, followed this advice. A few friends travelled on AP, but had a bit of unpleasant experience as they were put in secondary every single time.

    Refused or denied? Those are different things. Is this any new information or you knew it already?
